<h2 style="color:#00ac9e;">Summary</h2><hr />
<p>I am a mechanical engineer (PhD) with strong back ground of research experience in Thermo-fluids (Combustion) and hands on expertise of emission measurements using laser diagnostics. Strong practical skills and able to turn a concept into a reality. In addition to my scientific and technical skills, I developed other administrative skills associated to setting up and managing a research lab. Possesses an excellent working knowledge of 3D solid modeling CAD softwares and Image processing using Matlab. Able to comprehend large amount of information and communicate in basic terms. I have established lasting relationships based on trust, respect and a positive attitude, always getting the best out of past experience and incorporating others point of view. Presenting the research work at high impact international conferences polished my communication skills. Worked more than a year in International companies.</p>
